Police have confirmed that several shots were fired and a male juvenile walking home from school has been shot near Moore Elementary School near Lamb and Bonanza.

Police say someone in a car fired shots, hitting the 15-year-old Desert Pines High School student in the foot. Eyewitnesses say he went running and limping to the Vera Johnson Manor apartment complex. He later was taken to North Vista Hospital.

The mother told Eyewitness News that her son isn't in a gang but that she does believe it is gang related. She said she is cooperating with police but the police say something different. They say neither the teen nor the mother are cooperating.

No one is in custody yet. Police are still investigating. 

Eyewitness News will have the latest.
